        The objective of BizCollege is to offer an efficient and convenient way to give business training to at-risk youth from low-income communities. The project stakeholders want to provide at-risk youth with the tools they need to be successful and sustain themselves and their families. Research conducted by the stakeholders has confirmed the need for this type of service in the Seattle area. Therefore, giving them business training and the tools to start their own businesses will have a positive impact on their lives, their communities, and future generations.

    BizCollege will address the need of providing opportunities to youth from low-income communities. Many members of these communities find themselves in very difficult situations from an economic and social perspective. Many of them do not finish High School, and that greatly limits the work opportunities they have to provide for themselves and their families. When they find themselves in these situations, with no opportunities to move ahead and prosper, which makes them isolated from society. Therefore, BizCollege will address the business need of providing training and opportunities for at-risk to be successful in business, and also as valuable contributors to their communities and society in general.
